While the returns from Florida fruit
sold through the Fruit Exchange or
consigned to commission houses may be
small and unsatisfactory, they are far
larger than they would be were Florida
fruit sold in the auction mart. The ten
dency OF all auction rooms is always to-
wards lower prices, and such marts feel
not the power of a few but of uni
verse of buyers. Again, To sell our
fruit at auction is to lower its reputa-
tion by placing it on basis with Medi-
terranean refuse which brought some
fancy prices before the general competi-
ton of fruit from this State-the king
fruit of the world. Much has been said
against the commission dealer, but we
happen to know that there are but few
commission men in this Union who are
not anxious to sell and control fine
marks of fruit, and dealers handling
such marks never fail to duplicate or
ders. Fruit growers of Florida make a
reputation foI packing and shipping fine
fruit, sustain such reputation as the
years roll on, and ship your fruit
where you will as long as you keep IT
from the auction rooms; but if 10 the
latter place you are determined to ship.
take trip to New York, and upon arri-
val of the Mediterranean steamers view
the thousands of boxes of oranges and
lemons packed and jammed upon the
pier for the inspection of buyers; follow

Prices for geS.

The members of the Fruit Exchange
seemed at one time willing TO leave the
fate of their organization TO be decided
by the scale of prices as compared with
those received by the commission men,
but since the challenge of Vessels & Co.
we have heard no more of the proposal.
If the judgment Is to be rendered on the
supposition that the merchant is dishon-
est, then the question need not come
into court, but we doubt if the Exchange
has figures to prove growers wrong in
shipping TO merchants who have shown
themselves worthy of faith for period
of years. At least they will find it hard
10 convince heavy growers making pri-
vate arrangements with reputable mer-
chants who really understood their BUSH
ness. A rascal is rascal whether he is
a commission man or not, but so also
an honest man is honest, and those who
have found one among the fruit dealers
does not need to stop and look for an
other with a lantern.

A SCHOONER BLOWN UP.
A Cargo Of Giant Powder Great es q
Terrible w reck on shore.
SAN FRANCISCO. January l6.


SAN FRANCISCO, January 10.
The schooner Parallel, with 100, 900
pounds of giant powder on board, went
ashore last night at the sOutherly end of
Point LObos, inside the famous Seal
Rocks. and opposite Cliff House, near
the city. After being abandoned by her
crew, she pounded on the rocks until the
cargo blew up with a tremendous expiO-
sion, the efft CT of which was frightful.
The signal station was completely de-
molished, the Life Saving Station was
wrecked, and the west side of the Cliff
House, Notwithstanding its elevation,
was blown out, and every window pane
in the building broken. The large con-
cert room on the beach, and other build
ings lower down, all had their windows
broken, and were otherwise damaged.
The long carriage shed adjoining the
Cliff House was tumbled into a mass of
ruins. Adolf Sutro's conservatory on
the heights above was shattered to atoms
and all his windows broken.
Three members of the life saving crew i.
who had built fire on the beach and had
decided to remain near the wreck, were
hurled into the AR by the conclusion and
severely injured by being dashed to the
earth. The remaining members of the
crew, who had returned to the station,
rushed to the rescue of their injured
companions. They carried them to the
station, where medical aid was sum-
moned and everything necessary to re-
lieve their suffering was done. The
limbs of one of the injured men, Horace
Smith, were so frightfully DISCOUNTED as
TO make his sufferiDgs intense, and for a
| time his life was despaired Of Two 9TH
ers, Charles Rogers and John Wilson,
| escaped with less serious injuries.
Captain Hyslop, in command of the
ifesaving station, describes the explo-
sion as follows
''At l O'Clock the sleepers were thrown
| from then beds bv a great explosion
which made them think that a great
earthquake had upheaved the cliff, OF a
tidal wave had swept up from the Pa
! cItic. y great wave dashed up and
vsulted over the Cliff House buildings
| The whole shore and cliff literally trem
bled and shook as no earthquake has sha
ken the earth for years, The people wefs
Iudely thrown from their beds by for C.
! of the explosion, and furniture and bed
| steads were tossed and heaped about thu
| rooms"
The famous Cliff House presents /;
scene 'beggsring description. The wes
side of the building overlooking the oceaI
is completely ruined, being held togeth
err only by the beams. The window
are smashed and the doors twisted off tn
hinges. The building is in such shat
tered condition that all that Is left of j
will have to be taken down, if it does no
tOpple over into the ocean.

The Difference
New York Star.

During the half century
and more since 1920 the country has
learned much of the incidence of taxes
and the best methods of taxation. IL has
learned to look more ar the suitability of
things to be taxed than To the place of
origin. 1t has discovered that taxes, ex-
cept to guard our liberties. can new, be
a source of wealth, individual and ma
tional. An income tax would be as obi
Gus. and a direct tax as clumsy, now as
ever. but much else about taxation has
changed greatly. The plea Of - infancy"
and infans industries" is no longer
heard in the land. The voters and work
ingmen are coming to see that it is cum
ming machinery like that employed in
ma king boots and shoes, the strife OF
capital employ ed in railways. and the
highly paid intelligent labor of Ameri-
cans employed in working machinery
that have reduced prices in the United
States. especially the prices of things not
hand made. What is needed now is an
enlargement of the free list to include
wool, lumber and crude materials used
by our manufacturers.
Why can not and will not Mr. Randall
and MIR. Morrison come together and adj
Just compromise on the basis of either
Mr.. Manning's plan. or on a basis of all
three of the plans: There is IN opening
for patriotic effort which, if successful,
the country will not forget.
